Whoever is not well mannered
in his relationship with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will patch him up.
Will deal with him under the earth.
My brothers and my sisters,
when speaking about others,
when speaking about others,
There might be times, my brothers and my
sisters, where we have to say something
because debunking,
rebuking
has been made permissible in 6 cases.
As Imam An Nawawi
he mentions
in his Riyadu salihin:
But my brothers and my sisters,
what I want to really speak about in
this episode is
being fair and just
in that which we say about others,
no matter who it is.
Being fair and just
is something that is a must
upon every single individual
when speaking about whoever it might be
and in every single situation
So you're thinking to yourself
even the Kuffar?
Yes, my brothers and my sisters, even the
Kuffar.
For Dayal ibn Ayab,
The great Tabiai said,
And by Allah,
It is not lawful for you to oppress
a pig.
It is not lawful for you to oppress
and bring harm to a pig.
Beirei Haqin without right.
If this is a pig, my brothers and
mothers, it's an animal. How about a human
being?
And yes my brother is a Muslim even
if the guy is a kafir.
Look what Ibn Taymah said
and tell the lima
It is not lawful for you
to oppress anyone even if that individual is
a disbeliever.
And then he recited a statement of Allah
Azzawajal when he said
Do not let the hate that you have
in your heart entice you
to oppressing them.
But rather be fair and just, indeed, this
is more closer to a Taqar.
So if we said that you can't oppress
a kafir,
then my brothers and my sisters,
that which is foremost is that you can't
oppress a Muslim,
even if that person is an innovator.
Whether it is
you're speaking about
someone who you disagree with.
If you are a Salafi and you disagree
with a Brelvi,
you cannot say about that Brelvi,
that which isn't a reality.
And the same applies the Brylvi cannot say
about the Diobandi and the Diobandi can't say
about the Brylvi
that which has no
reality or no truth to it.
If you have something against the Ekhwani,
you're not allowed to oppress that Ikhwani.
You are not allowed to say about him
that which isn't a reality.
This is the The
religion of Allah Subhanahu
wa ta'ala.
Ratima rhamallahu ta'ala he said
When speaking about others,
it must be done with
justice
and also with knowledge,
not with ignorance and also oppression.
And he says that this is the way
of the people of innovation.
If somebody, my brothers and my sisters is
insulting like Harafi'li,
he's insulting
and I'm bringing these examples
so we realize
the severity of the matter.
He's insulting the companion Mu'awiya radiAllahu anhu.
It is not lawful for you to say
about him or to pin up against him
that he insults Abu Bakr and Umar or
Aisha Radiallahu Ta'ala Anha.
When the reality is he doesn't.
If someone is saying
that Uzair
is the son of Allah, you can't say
about him that he also claims
that Jesus or Isa is the son of
Allah azza wa jal.
Fairness and justice
with whatever we say.
It is not lawful for one to
boycott his brother for more than 3 days.
And the best of them
is the one who starts
with the salaam.
